A sexy carjacker takes a would-be starlet for the ride of her life as a pulse-pounding new series from New York Times bestselling author Tracy Wolff begins.

Once the brains behind a car-boosting ring, Nic Medina has spent the last three years playing it straight. Now drag racers flock to his L.A. auto shop, Hotwired, for a shot at going head-to-head with the man himself. But when a crooked cop gives Nic a treacherous ultimatum—steal ten high-end cars or watch his nephew disappear into the system—he makes the only choice he can, one that puts the life he’s worked so hard for at risk. No sooner does Nic agree than he spots some nasty competition—and a gorgeous bystander in harm’s way.

A small-town girl with Hollywood dreams, Jordan Bass never expected to be swept up in a real-life drama. But that’s exactly what happens when she witnesses a violent crime. And when a smoldering stranger takes the wheel and practically kidnaps her in a desperate bid to keep her safe, she’s not sure whether to scream . . . or kiss him. Nic’s bad news—but the real bad guys aren’t above silencing a witness. On a collision course with danger, Jordan finds herself falling for the man whose street smarts are keeping her alive . . . and whose touch puts her in high gear.

So the beginning of this book made me think of the Fast and Furious movies. Street cars everywhere! It's where Jordan first sees Nic. And neither one can get the other out of their thoughts. There is an issue with Jordan's car that brings the two of them together and neither are prepared for the repercussions that comes along with that. The banter back and forth between them is fun, sexy and completely captivating.

Nic and his family haven't had an easy life and neither has Jordan. Nic is caring and protective of those around him and his sweetness toward Jordan makes him quite endearing. I definitely have a crush on Nic Medina... Back off, ladies, I claimed him first!

This story is fast paced and the reader is left unsure which way things would turn as they follow Nic and Jordan's story. It's sexy, sweet, sad, scary and 100% enjoyable. This story never stopped and I didn't want to put it down. It's a story about love- familial, friends and lover- sex, boosted cars and lots and lots of action! And now I cannot wait for the next book in this series! Whew buddy! I'm hooked.

Warning this story has a cliffhanger in the epilogue. It ends but then there is more. I liked it though it wasn't totally captivating but it kept you interested. I still would have liked to hear more of background information on the characters like what kind of degree was Jordan getting, simple stuff. Time line of the story got confusing but other than that it was a good story.

I'm honestly confused . The book was good but it was different then from what the description read. He does not steal ten high end cars ( he steals one car which is Jordan's ) . Also how is she a small town girl with big Hollywood dreams , I don't think that's an accurate description of her character at all. They also make it sound like she's being chased because she witnessed a violent crime but it's more like Jordan accidentally brought her into it . The actual book was good but why is the description so different from the actual story

I loved Accelerated! It starts off with a bang and the pace keeps "accelerating" right to the bomb at the end. Nic and Jordan are great strong-willed characters that you can't help but connect with. The supporting cast of characters is equally as dynamic and I hope they each get their own story. Accelerated is an exciting first in the new series by Tracy Wolff!
